Off My Chest
G.D.C. Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I need someone, to come save me
Cause I think, I'm going crazy
Nah I think it's for the best,
If I get it off my chest
I need someone, to come save me
Cause I think, I'm going crazy
Nah I think it's for the best,
If I get it off my chest

I might say some dumb shit, don't get mad
You look like you got hit by a double ad
Where's your dad, you look like he left
Enough about you, what's on my chest
I'm not a guest, nah I'm the best
Ain't even gonna make a reference to Mr. West
I feel so pressed if I let my chest speak
They will always have another reason to arrest me
I wanna say me, fill in that gray bit
I wanna make some money and then stay rich
People think I'm gay but I don't really fuck with gay shit
"That's homophobic"
No, it ain't bitch
You little stupid ass boy why you playing
Like twenty ten Tyler I don't care what I'm saying
Fun fact, I'm part of LGBT
Why you think my rap name is Lil D (Lil D)
I think it is for the best
If I get it, I get it, off my chest
I think it is for the best
If I get it off my chest
I Can't usually say what I want to
But I don't care now, I'll tell you what's true
Don't wanna listen, so fuck you
Listen to my point of view, then I'll love you
Cause now it's my turn should I do more
Should I go up to a lady maybe call her a whore
Man I know, I should record
The homophobic freestyles I did before
And I don't like you, so you can go and die
You're so bad you couldn't kill yourself if you tried
But of course, I don't want you to die of suicide
No no no, I'll just kill you while you're high
But I ain't understanding why you always lie
You say my shit is mid but you can never tell me why
Like you could do it better, no you can't you're not that guy
You don't even know how it is, at least I try
People say I won't make it, and I hate it
How? I'm getting tunes in my head then I create it
Ask all my haters why the fuck would you hate it
I just wanna grow up and say "I made it"
New school, MF DOOM
I'm going to the moon
Blowing up, very soon
Call that Hiroshima boom
Don't need help, in my room
Try to hurt me I'm immune
Got a nice, rapping tune
I can't tell but lately, this whole life thing has been killing me
And I don't know if it is my energy but it's hitting me
And I can't even tell if being nice is really willingly
I just wanna punch somebody but they are not permitting me
I don't even know where my consciousness is supposed to be
They're messing with me are you kidding me, are you shitting me
You don't know how hard it is to be me you weren't there with me
But I cannot lie this fast beat and flow is really filling me
Just had to get that off my chest
(Just had to get that off my chest)
(Just had to get that off my chest)
(Just had to get that off my chest)
(Just had to get that off my chest)
(Just had to get that off my chest)
(Just had to get that off my chest)

(Just had to get that off my chest)
(Just had to get that off my chest)
